Text (slide 25):
Accommodations for Special Education Students
Students with disabilities must be provided with appropriate accommodations, when necessary, to enable participation in State assessments.
Decisions regarding accommodations should be made on the basis of individual student needs, not on the basis of labels (such as category of disability).
The accommodations that students receive on State assessments should be similar to those routinely provided to students during classroom instruction.
